NATIONAL RASPBERRY CREAM PIE DAY

Raspberry lovers today is again your day! Following National Raspberry Cake Day, August 1, of each year, celebrates National Raspberry Cream Pie Day.

Raspberries are the edible fruit of a multitude of plant species in the genus Rubus of the rose family. The name also applies to the plants themselves.

Raspberries are woody stemmed perennials. Raspberries are widely grown in all temperate regions of the World. Raspberries are a very important commercial fruit crop. At one time, raspberries were a midsummer crop, however with new technology, cultivars and transportation, they can now be obtained year-round.

An individual raspberry weighs 0.11 – 0.18 oz.

An individual raspberry is made up of about 100 drupelets.
One raspberry bush can yield several hundred berries a year.
A raspberry has a hollow core once it is removed from the receptacle.
Raspberries are a rich source of vitamin C, manganese and dietary fiber.
Raspberries contain vitamin B1, vitamin B3, folic acid, magnesium, copper and iron.
To celebrate National Raspberry Cream Pie Day, enjoy these “tried and true” Raspberry Cream Pie recipes.
